let's bring in senator mike braun, republican from indiana. you are shaking your head just like me.tart the top 10 dumbest things you come up with here. that would be close to the top especially on top of what we've gone through. they put out 10 ways to raise revenues. we have record revenues. even more so in 2020. it is not a revenue issue, regardless of the tax rate, you look historically back 50 years, we average 17.5% to 18% gdp. the higher the rates are the lower the economic growth and the lower the rates are, if you find the sweet spot that was the pre-covid economy, tax cutting jobs act. i have never seen a party try to undo something that wasn't broken and this would be on that top 10 list. forcing vaccinations or you get fired, that polls at 14%. we will get through this but main street america where i come from, we just got in my hometown a report we are down to 2.3% unemployment. we don't need more government. we need to get it out of the way. we need to talk about balanced-budget amendments a the size of the federal government to the percentage of gdp that revenues norm

indiana republican senator mike braun tells fox news quote, our police do the hardest job in the world and shouldn't be fired for not complying. indiana's police departments are hiring now and will welcome you will the respect you deserve end quote. garrett tenney live in chicago. garrett. >> harris, they may not have to go to indiana. the counties surrounding chicago have a lot of job openings and sheriffs there say they are hearing from a lot of cpd officers who want to get out of the city. some because of this vaccine mandate. right now as many as several thousand officers are at risk of being taken off the streets for refusing to report their vaccination status. that has prompted the city and the state to come up with contingency plans but even those contingency plans are getting pushback. this week a statewide law enforcement coalition said chicago could need help in an emergency if enough officers are taken off the jobs. several sheriffs replied they won't send any deputies to help because the mayor created this emergency herself. a sheriff told me this hour it wouldn't make sens

last month, senator mike braun asked the secretary of education about the role of parents in education. he asked if parents were, quote, the primary stakeholder in their kids' education. secretary cardona said this. he said they are an important stakeholder. in other words, they're not the primary stakeholder. parents not the primary stakeholder? is it any surprise that so many parents are deciding to educate their children at home? so who does the secretary of education think is the primary educator of our children? the union bosses? are they the primary educators of our children? democrats act like children are the property of the schools and schools, of course, are the property in the minds of the democrats of the teachers' unions. parents have every right to be upset with what's happening in the public schools all across this nation. parents have every right to demand real improvements. it's time for the democrats to stop taking orders from the teachers' union and start listening to parents and to the students. thank you, madam president. i yield the floor. mr. cornyn: madam presid
